meek Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 This isn't the first time we've seen a Snyder smear campaign. We saw it with Coles and then again with Lavar. At first you're more likely to give the owner the benefit of the doubt over the player seeing as how you would think he'd be the more mature and credible of the two. But at this point, Snyder has long lost any benefit of the doubt from Skins fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knell1906 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Gregg may have dissed Gibbs without knowing it, while Dan and Vinny are looking at each other like...WTF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1972FAN Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 God I hope this is not true. What a cluster****. Yeah I really don't want to go down that path. That could be real ugly and a black eye for the organization. I have to block all the hear say out and wait for the end result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjs11692 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 If this is true.... I know that Dan Snyder will have almost completely lost me as a skins fan! Not only will they have to learn a new offense under Zohrn... or whatever his name is... but now if Williams is not a candidate for HC, who says that he is staying....which then puts a new look on a really solid defense.... Snyder's ego is getting the best of him! I think that if Williams is not hired as the coach...he will lose a lot of sins fans. On top of that, there will be a lot of media criticizing his decision... and this thing could spiral until there is nothing left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

praise_gibbs Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 **** FASSEL!!! SIGN MEEKS!!! I love this team and like Snyder but, all of this news is a little much.

Califan007 The Constipated Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 As mentioned in another thread, the rumor now (according to WTOP) is that the disrespect was not telling Gibbs about the 10-man tribute to Sean Taylor in the Buffalo game and a possible subsequent argument with Snyder over the matter. Who the heck knows at this point. If this is what they were referring to in the "disrespect" rumor then everybody needs to chill the **** OUT....jeebus.

mcees4life Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 why would Williams diss Gibbs when he knows that Gibbs is privately supporting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Gregg loves Gibbs, never criticized him, and there were no negatives in any of his 3 interviews, according to his quotes in the espn interview---no talk of smear there either, by Gregg. fwiw.

MDRedskinsFan Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Mort said Fassel "recommended" Zorn as an offensive coordinator and it "could be a sign".Good thing about Danny is that he struck out the side on the media, they couldn't be more clueless about the process. That isn't new news, they're only linking them because when Fassel was the front runner they interviewed Zorn. Could be true, but apparently Fassel feels used during this process. I hope we hire Jim Schwartz and get this thing over with. I don't like Spagnuolo, he's Jason Garrett on the other side of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Worthy Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I think that someone outside of the skins is starting all this mess.I dont think that snyder would smear Gwilliams and I dont think willaims would say that about gibbs. I think that the media is mad because snyder is not saying anything. Its not the first, and wont be the last. When was the last time the media had something nice to say? And the fact that this is the slow week for football news this is right up their alley to spin something until SB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like he was the bad guy when he really wasnt. I think that is really a good way of looking at it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins_lifer Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I started a thread immediately when I heard the news Greg was supposedly bath-mouthing Gibbs and my thread got locked within several minutes with 6 replies and a bunch of viewings...something strange going on here...

GoCommiesGo Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 If Danny really tries to start a smear campaign...That is just ****ing pathetic. Way to be a man Dan. Go have fun with sub $2.00 Six Flags Stock, jackass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Brown #43 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I dont think that snyder would smear Gwilliams I disagree. Remember the ice cream incident with Mike Nolan, and the plasma TV comment with Lav Coles. Snyder is a pretty vindictive guy. I think he sees turning Williams into a villain as his only way out of this mess. Problem is, doing so is going to piss off all the players who love Williams. I have a really, really bad feeling about the direction all of this is headed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at this point, Snyder has long lost any benefit of the doubt from Skins fans. I was thinking this was all because of a stupid mole in the Redskins organization, but now I'm starting to think you're right. He mailed Mike Nolan a box of vanilla ice cream. He fired Norv Turner at 7-6. He fired Marty after one season. He told Coles he'd buy him a plasma TV so he could watch football at home. ugh.

DWinzit Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Thinks Zorn will be great for Campbell. Grilliams thinks smear campaign will occur against him by Redskins. Zorn would be a great mentor or QB coach for Jason, but OC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcees4life Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 This may get real ugly............i can only imagine the media at the presser when the new coach (other than Williams) is introduced. There will be a formal interrogation of Snyder by the media. Might be protests outside by fans too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allskins Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 i believe GW, i dont care who our coach becomes because i will support our team either way, but i think snyder is trying to make GW look bad so the fans will side with him ding, ding, ding, ding, you got that right! and the side show continues! :munchout: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1972FAN Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I'm not jumping to any conclusions, gonna wait to hear from Greg, the new head coach or Synder at the next press conference. way to many rumors, smearing etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Snyder will pull a Rosenhaus and repeat 'no comment' to any questions about this hiring process. No one knew what was going on, and now the details are even more confusing/surprising.

mjs11692 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 bring on ron Meeks! Maybe we can trade for julius peppers too :/ That would be the worst possible outcome because then where would Gregg Williams' job fit in...Meeks is a defensive minded HC and that could lead to a new defense and the release of Gregg Williams...come on SNYDER hire Williams already for the sake of your fans... let me put it in Snyders' terms: "Fans=Money $$$" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMike619 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I honestly dont know what to think any more. Part of me thinks that Snyder is looking for any excuse to smear GW and run him out and bring in Fassel. I think that Fassel has the job and that they hired Zorn because that is who Fassel agreed to during the meeting. Another part of me believes this is all smoke and mirrors and that nothing has been determined by anyone yet. Maybe this part is just me hoping..
